thanks to everyone for your thoughts!


No problem. Glad to share.


Costs of parts actually used, so far:

* 10 HP motor -- $40
* Definite Purpose contactor -- $3
* 2 capacitors, 92 mF each -- $2

The total cost, so far, is $45. Wires and new breaker do not count.


Hey Ignorant, for $10 more you could have built an electric chair, tried
it out yourself and we'd never hear from you again. Think about it for
your next project.


Hey Gomer, why not putz off? While you are mucking around, dazed look
on your face, tongue sticking out the corner of your drooling mouth,
trying to figure out how to change a drawer pull, folks like Iggy are
making the drawer pulls from scratch.

Tell you what..why not go play he

Im sure you can, with your Kmart tools, manage to find a device simple
enough for even you to build, to **** yourself with.

That site is pretty disturbing. What kind guys build those machines? I
thought metalworking was a nice, innocent hobby :-).

Incindentally, those trolls don't think like engineers. Why spend
hundreds of bucks building something with your Kmart tools when you
could just rent a jackhammer for a day?
